8 markers for specific neurons. Regarding the proliferation marker Ki67, this antibody was problematic to get to bind and several antigen retrievals protocols were tried without success. The main parameter for ki67 antibody binding was the tissue fixation, often short fixation time was necessary to receive an analyzable signal. Figure 4.
